Ingo is a Certified VW & Audi Master Technician who uses the same specialized diagnostic equipment and service tools as the dealership service departments. Ingo knew at an early age what he wanted to do. Though he grew up in Vancouver, he completed his apprenticeship and received his certification at a VW Audi dealership in Dusseldorf, Germany. Bringing his experience back home to Canada, he worked at various local shops before confidently opening the doors to IB Motors in 2000. Ingo excels at diagnostics, tracking and solving mechanical and electrical issues. Vanagons are a passion for Ingo. His understanding of the complexities of these unique vehicles come from working on so many of his own and his German attention to detail means that they are repaired properly. It’s helpful that he is fluent in German when searching overseas for rare parts.

Steve received his Journeyman status while working for a Richmond VW dealership. Eighteen years later, he left that dealership to work for IB Motors. Steve is a local boy, born and raised in Richmond. He says his favorite cars to work on are the Mark IV GTIs.

Chris is also a local boy from Kitslano. He had always worked on cars as a hobby, but eight years ago, he decided to go Denmark to earn his apprenticeship. He came home as soon as he received his ticket and has been at IB Motors ever since.

Words from our Customers

Ingo was very nice and helped me understand what was wrong with my car. He didn’t do any repairs without my approval first and there were no surprise charges at the end. Yes, I would definitely recommend him to my friends and family. And as a matter of fact, I already have.Vikram Parmar, Delta BC

From oil changes to aftermarket big turbo’s/cams Audi RS4’s, etc. Engine rebuilds. Anything VAG. He rebuilt a Vanagon motor last year. He’s a one-man show, small clean shop.
